Year 3 - Stone Age Houses
Year 3 are loving learning about the Stone Age and today they were fascinated to view 3D models of a Palaeolithic and Mesolithic camp. It really helped to understand what homes were like in these periods.
Year 3 Computing - Comic Creation

Exploring magnets in Year 3
Hands on science in Year 3 as the children began their magnet investigations. They had to predict whether the poles of a magnet would attract or repel. Such fascination as they tested their results!

Keeping cool during the heatwave in Year 3
Keeping cool was the aim today, during the heatwave. A double helping of ice pops certainly helped. Our own 'spa water trays' were also a huge hit but we don't think our whole class reading poem on water made a massive difference!!
